I would like to suggest that the length of a serpent / rattlesnake / adder is added to the information presented when right-clicking on 1 of these monster types - if this information is available.

This information would relieve the necessity of manual counting the number of segments when the snake types are used as timers or to activate pressure plates.

I am not sure if this data is available - I vaguely recall seeing mention that the game engine is only aware of the head and tail - shortening the tail when necessary, and removing the snake type when it's only 1 segment long.

It's a good idea, worth implementing if it's easy to do IMHO.

Serpent length would be handy information in quite a few situations. I'd like to have it (if it's not too much work)

This can be done (since 3.x), so this can be closed.
